About the Artist
I create instrumental music because I love the challenge and beauty of expressing myself with the nothing but the guitar. I also really like impressing girls, and instrumental music allows me to lie and tell every girl that the song is about her. Ok, so I'm full of it. That's not why I like instrumental music. I write instrumental music because I have to. If I didn't write music I would explode and the world would end. Something inside my mind drives me forward every day to write music and it is truly a pleasure to share it with you.

The guitar is a gorgeous instrument. It is violent, passionate, comical, and romantic. I truly love playing guitar and I believe that comes out on my albums. However, the strength of my music is in composition. Every note exists to serve the meaning of the song, and this methodology of creating music will no doubt provide you with a deep, exciting, and crazy listening experience.

Everyone has music playing in their soul, and I would be honored if you added me to the soundtrack of your life. Enjoy!

Product Description
Instrumental rock fueled by Latin beats and explosive guitar. "Heroes and Villains" was recorded in my bedroom in about seven hours. I actually had all the songs written by January of 2002, but I decided I hated them all so I deleted them all and started over. I then spent the next six months or so writing new songs. Then, on a cold October day, I sat down and recorded all the guitar parts. Finally, I took the entire mess up to Binary Studios in Bellingham and had it mixed/mastered.

The result is an album that I am very excited about. I love every song on this album. Each one has a special meaning to me, and I came away from the experience a healthier person.

I played or programmed all the instruments on this album. By "programmed", I mean that I used various composition programs to score out keyboard parts, synth drum parts, and various other musical textures that you'll find on the disc. It's true that probably 80% of the non-guitar instruments on this album are entirely synthetic. However, the time, effort, and passion that went into painstakingly scoring out these songs was not synthetic, and I stand by this record very proudly.

Heroes and Villains,Forrest Kyle
